GeoSemantics. Earthly Memories and Inhuman Becomings in the Global South (Part One) (original) (raw)

The aim of this cluster is to foreground the forms and meanings that the “geological turn” takes in the Global South’s cultures. Our aim is to create a dialogical space to dynamize collective and multimedia archives that link geology’s deep time with the entangled histories of political, social, and embodied experiences of regions affected by colonial and extractivist practices. These contributions take Earth both as a tool and as a medium to undo the nature-culture divide, and in so doing, they invite us to an immersive collective experience of uncanny listening to the Earth to reclaim our soil and mineral constitution.
